    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    I guess he's starting a grenade crop...so that's where they come from...

    On the other hand, nice BAR sling. You don't see lots of those.

    We've seen that top picture before, I think it's mislabeled. Could be wrong, but I believe it was from Europe.....Frank

    Speaking of the top again Frank, this time I notice his piling swivel has gone...I wonder which landing he's just come from? With his lifebelt, self-inverting still on...?

    Judging from the woolie scarf, the field jacket, gloves, and the way he's bundled up for warmth I'd guess a (possibly opposed) Rhine or other river crossing.
